Ndu Manzaniba 2
1 Niwa ivi pentacos a ye, bana ki ni bubu riri wawumbawu.
And when the days of pentecost were fully come, while they were all assembled together,
2 Mle, kikle gyungyu ri, rhi ni shulu, a lu fu grji ye ka ko wa bana ki nima'a.
suddenly there was a sound from heaven, as of a violent wind; and the whole house where they were sitting was filled with it.
3 Elem to ilu kri ku gason nitu mba ni yiyri.
And there appeared to them tongues, which were divided like flame; and they rested upon each of them.
4 Ruhu Tsatsra a ri shu ku ni ko aha mba, e ba lu kri ku tre ni leme kankan, wa ruhu a tsro ba.
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in diverse languages, as the Spirit gave them to speak.
5 Ni kima, Yahudawa bi hu nkon Irjhi, rhi ni gbu gbungblu kankan ni meme, bana he ni Urishilima.
Now there were resident at Jerusalem persons who feared God, Jews from all the nations under heaven.
6 Niwa baa wo langyungyua, akpa ba rhikice u ba ye bubu riri ikpea a kpa ba tsi shishi, nitu ko nha asi wo ba ni lan tre gbumma
And when that sound occurred, all the people collected together; and they were agitated, because they every one heard them speaking in their own languages.
7 Kpe a k'ma nuba sisiri ni mre; i ba tre ndi, “E biyi wawumba, bi si trea, bana ndhi bi Galilee na?
And they were all astonished, and wondered, saying one to another: All these who speak behold, are they not Galileans?
8 A ngye ti du ta niwo ba ni lan tre gbunbu, lan wa ba grjita niwa a?
And how do we hear, each his own language, in which we were born?
9 Parthians mba medes mba Elamites mba biwa ba ki ni mesopotamia, ni Judea mba Cappodia, wu Pontus mba Asia.
Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and those dwelling between the rivers, Jews and Cappadocians, and those from the region of Pontus and of Asia,
10 Phrygia mba Pamphylia, ni Egypt mba mbru bubu bi Libya hi ni Cyrene, mba Bitsri wa ba rhi ni Rome.
and those from the region of Phrygia, and of Pamphylia, and of Egypt, and of the parts of Lybia near Cyrene, and those who have come from Rome, Jews and proselytes;
11 Yahudawa baba biwa ba kpa hu irjhi wu Yaudawa ba, Cretans baba larabawa, ki wo ba si tre ni lan mbu nitu kikle ndu Irjhi.
and those from Crete, and Arabians. Lo, we hear them speak in our own languages the wonders of God.
12 A nuba rhimre ni sisiri i ba tre ni kpa mba ndi, “A hi ngye to yi?”
And they all wondered and were astonished, saying one to another: From whom is this thing?
13 Bari banza ba nda tre ndi, “Basi huwa hi sa.”
Others however ridiculed them, saying: They have drunken new wine, and are intoxicated.
14 E bitrus a lu kri nimi wlon donri mba, nda nzu lan nda tre gbangban me niba ndi, ndhi lilon be gbu Judea, baba ndhi wawu'u biwa, bi ki ni Urishilima, sren to ni lan tre mu nidu yi mlaa toh.
And afterwards Simon Cephas rose up, with the eleven legates, and elevated his voice, and said to them: Men, Jews, and all ye that reside at Jerusalem; be this known to you, and hearken ye to my words.
15 Ndhi biyi bana si hwu na wa bi ban na, zizan ni ton wu tra wu hwumble genri.
For these are not intoxicated, as ye suppose: for lo, it is yet but the third hour.
16 Kpe yi a tsra ni tre anabi Joel;
But this is what was spoken by Joel the prophet:
17 Ani he vi bi kle kle, Irjhi a tre, “Mi vra ruhumu nitu rima ndhi wawu. Mri mbi lilon baba mrimba ba rira ikpi bi ye ni ko shishi mri nzembi ba to ko waayi e bi chiche mbi hra ra nitu ra.
It shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons shall prophesy, and your daughters and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
18 Jaji bi ndu mu, lilon baba mba, mi buwa ba ni ruhu mu u ba nra kpi biye ni ko shishi.
And upon: my servants and my handmaids will I pour my Spirit, in those days, and they shall prophesy.
19 Mi tsro kikle ndu mu ni shu shulu, mba ni alamu mu ni meme (gbugblu), iyi ilu mba ntse Ikpan irjhi ni k'ma ti bwu,
And I will give signs in heaven, and prodigies on earth, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke.
20 Kpan iwha ni k'ma ti iyi, ri du kikle vi wu Baci ni ye, vi wa ko nha ni to nda rhimre nitu ma.
And the sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and fearful day of the Lord come.
21 Ani to ki, ndhi wa a yo nde Bacia ani nawo
And it shall be, that whoever will call on the name of the Lord, shall live.
22 Ndhi bi Israila, wo lan tre biyi, Yeshu wu Nazarat ana ndhi wa Irjhi a nzu hon ni shishi mbi, ni kikle ndu ni kpi bi du ndhi bwunyu yo hyo ni wuo Irjhi ati ni woma ni mimbi, me wa biyi me bito.
Men, sons of Israel, hear ye these words: Jesus the Nazarean, a man made manifest among you by God, by those deeds of power and prodigies which God wrought among you by his hand, as ye yourselves know;
23 Ndi yi wa ba vuu nu tsra ni kpe wa Irjhi ana mla zi nda to; ni wo meme; ndhi wa bana zren ni tu nkon na ba wuu ni kpan u ni kunkro (kros).
him, being hereto appointed by the prescience and the good pleasure of God, ye have delivered into the hands of the wicked; and have crucified and slain.
24 Ama Irjhi a nzu lu, nda chuchuwo ni ya wu qu, nitu iqu na he ni gbengble wu vu u nji na
But God hath resuscitated him, and hath loosed the cords of the grave; because it could not be, that he should be held in the grave.
25 Ni kima Dawuda a tre ni tuma ndi “me to Baci chachu ni shishi mu; ngye a he ni kosan worhimu di du mina c'bi rhuna.
For David said of him: I foresaw my Lord at all times; for he is on my right hand, so that I shall not be moved.
26 Nitu ki, mi ngri ni suron mu e line mu a takpe. N'makpa mu ngame ni son ni yo suron.
Therefore my heart doth rejoice, and my glory exult, and also my body shall abide in hope.
For thou wilt not leave my soul in the grave, nor wilt thou give thy pious one to see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
28 Wu bwu nkon wu rai ni mu du mi mla to, wu du me ngri kpukpo me ni shishi me
Thou hast revealed to me the path of life; thou wilt fill me with joy with thy presence.
29 Mri vayi, ani bi numu dumi tre ni yi ni suron wu kpanyme, (hamma ni sisiri), nitu chiche baci. Dawuda, ndi a qu e ba rhuwu, e ibe ma he ni ta ya ni vi wu luwa.
Men, brethren, I may speak to you explicitly of the patriarch David, that he died, and also was buried; and his sepulchre is with us to this day.
30 Nitu kima ana anabi wa a toh ndi Irjhi a shirhi ni ban niwu ndi eh'pu wu nchinema ni hon son nitu tuchuma.
For he was a prophet, and he knew, that God had sworn to him by an oath: Of the fruit of thy bowels, I will seat one on thy throne.
31 A to kpe wa ani ye he ni shishia ndda tre ni tu lu tashme Kristi, ndi bana kawdon ni ko qu na; e n'mama na gla na. (Hadēs g86)
And he foresaw, and spoke of the resurrection of Messiah, that he was not left in the grave, neither did his body see corruption. (Hadēs g86)
32 Yesu yiwa Irjhi a nzu lunde, e kita wawumbu, ki bla ikpe wa kito di wo nitu ma'a.
This Jesus hath God resuscitated; and we all are his witnesses.
33 Nitu ki, niwa ba nzu hon hi wo ko rhi wu Irjhi, nda kpa Ruhu Tsatsra wa titi baci a shirhi niwu, a vu vra grhi, ikpi wa bisi to nini wo'a.
And he it is, who is exalted by the right hand of God, and hath received from the Father a promise respecting the Holy Spirit, and hath sent this gift which, lo, ye see and hear.
34 Dawuda ana hon hi ni shuluna, ama nda tre ndi “Baci a lha ni Bacimu,” ku son ni wo rhimu.
For David hath not ascended into heaven; because he himself said: The Lord said to my Lord, seat thyself at my right hand,
35 Di gben dumi k'ma bi kamba (yo shishi) niwu ti ruron wu sa za me.”
until I shall place thy enemies a footstool to thy feet.
36 Niki ma, du ko Israila wawu mla toh ndi janji, Irjhi du he Baci mba Kristi, Yesu yi wa bi Kpanwu nitu kros'a.
Therefore, let all the house of Israel know, assuredly, that God hath made that Jesus whom ye crucified, to be Lord and Messiah.
37 Niwa ba wo tre yi a yra ba suron, e ba lha ni Bitrus baba mbru manzani ba, ndi “Mri vayi, ki ti nihe?”
And when they heard these things, they were agitated in their heart; and they said to Simon and to the rest of the legates: Brethren, what shall we do?
38 Bitrus lha bawu di k'ma gon nu latre, ni kpa baptisma, ko nha bi ni nde Yesu kristi, ni wru latre bi ni Irjhi hlega, ndi kpa Ruhu Tsatsra wa ani nu hamma ni du ui han kpe.
Simon said to them: Repent, and be baptized every one of you, in the name of the Lord Jesus, for the remission of sins; so that ye may receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 Shirhi'a ahi wumbi, baba mrimbi, niwa ba he gbagban me ngame; wawundhi wa Baci Irjhi mbu ni yo ba'a”
For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all those afar off whom God will call.
40 Ni lan tre gbugbuwu, a tre ni tu kima'a nda nrooba ndi.” Nhawo rhu ni k'ba bi kawatre yi.
And in many other words he testified to them, and entreated of them, saying: Live ye from this perverse generation.
41 Mle ba kpa tre ma e ba ti baptisma ni bawu, ndhi dubu tra ka ru nha ni ba.
And some of them readily received his discourse, and believed, and were baptized. And there were added, on that day, about three thousand souls.
42 Ba ye suron mba ni bubu riri ni kpa Isro manzani mba zumunta, nda ni ga bredi wu jibi, mba bre Irjhi.
And they persevered in the doctrine of the legates; and were associated together in prayer, and in breaking the eucharist.
43 Sisiri a vu ko nha e anabawa'a ba ti ndu gbugbu baba ekpi bi tsro (sisir) ya.
And fear was on every mind: and many signs and prodigies were wrought by the hand of the legates in Jerusalem.
44 Biwa ba kpanyme ba ki ni bubu rii nda ti ko ngye to u ndi riri, hamma ni chuti nkan,
And all they who believed, were together; and whatever belonged to them, was of the community.
45 Ba vu ba kpimba le nda ga ni ko nba nmba tsra ni kpe wa ko nha ni son.
And they who had a possession, sold it, and divided to each one as he had need.
46 Nivi hi nivi, ba yo tu mba ni suron riri ni ko Irjhi,
And they continued daily in the temple, with one soul: and at home, they broke bread and took food rejoicing, and in the simplicity of their heart.
47 Ba ga bredi niko rikomba, nda ga birhi ni nroo kpamba hamma ni nzutu, ndani gbre nde Irjhi ndi ba ba kpanyme ni ba e chachu, Baci a si gbron ndhi wa basi nhawo ni ye niba nda du gbrumba a si hon
And they praised God, and had favor with all the people. And our Lord added daily to the assembly those who became alive.
